I feel the rain descend, I feel the beginning of it all, I feel the black of the distant sky, I feel the coming call. I feel the filth of our past, I feel the scum of our days, I feel the corrupted stench, I feel anger for our chosen ways. I feel the heavenly water, I feel the sin falling free, I feel life begin again, I feel new life for you and me. I feel the words of the prophet, I feel the futile cry for aid, I feel drowned in the flood, I feel the price we paid. But we brought this on ourselves, We brought this curse down, So let the heavens bleed, Let us all drown. Tears of a god’s anguish, Serenade a sea of dark damnation, Washing away the life he made, In the brilliant dawn of creation. I feel the life drop from me, I feel the pull of the end, I feel no sorrow for the lost life, I feel my spirit joyfully transcend… |
